God warned Adam and Eve not to eat from the Tree of Conscience, but they did not heed his admonition.

Addressing A Controversial Issue
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. The very nature of controversy finds its fundamental basis amidst disagreement between a minimum of two sides; when this conflict is left unresolved, the extent to which the controversial issue is heightened serves to impede progress toward a solution. At the same time, however, society cannot exist without controversy, inasmuch as people will never agree about every issue one hundred percent of the time. Upon examining the core aspect of controversy, one finds that personal interpretation represents the primary component. Characteristic of humanity's constant quest for the concept of meaning, the journey of understanding has come to represent myriad things to myriad people, ultimately rendering any universal explanation virtually impossible. The problem with meaning as it relates to controversy is attempting to successfully pinpoint a single yet comprehensive connotation to its concept; however, this cannot be achieved as long as any two individuals harbor decidedly different interpretations. Bibliography lists 11 sources.

Aesthetics
[ send me this paper ]
19 pages in length. Myriad philosophers, psychologists and sociologists have attempted to explain the inherent relationship that exists among the elements of aesthetic perception, awareness and time. Of those who have succeeded, the primary focus has been upon the sensual realm and the manner by which the passage of time can trigger enhanced sense awareness, as well as the sensual world eliciting an enhanced perception of time, which draws directly upon the experiential realm. As such, the sensual realm is looked upon as a way of enhancing aesthetic awareness in its sensual expression, which in turn trigger an enhanced awareness of the moment at hand and draws attention to the fleeting nature of existence that unifies all things. The writer discusses aesthetic perception as it relates to Kantian theory, art and physical beauty. Bibliography lists 16 sources.
